@esther.cooke: Replying to @ni.1961 Just to explain a little more the reason your foot and ankle will have become swollen is as its the lowest part of body now you are weight bearing, so your where the fluids have pooled, so when you press of it it doesnt spring back and feels squishy like play dough, make sure you are having time to elevate your leg, I used to sit for 10-15 mins with my leg elevated on a bunch of pillows or as high as I could up on a wall! I also found that i needed to buy bigger socks during this time until the swelling went down (or steal my bfs) #edema #kneesurgery #mpflreconstruction #kneesurgeryrecovery #swelling
